They are only held in by the clips at the front, have all the clips defiately released You may need to give it a gentle prise with a screwdriver to get it moving

Push the blades into the slots with the "heads" slightly towards the centre and then push them outwards whilst gently easing the radio forward.

I'd guess that you've put the tools in wrong, if you put them in corrrectly the radio will almost leap out of the dash. The problem is that it's diffcult to get the tools back out with the radio in the dash.

Edit: Sorry should have said, IIRC the flat on the tools should be inside.
